Ombra INTL020: Dystopian Lucid Dreaming *VINYL ONLY*

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Skelesys. Ombra International returns with a killer V.A, featuring 6 excellent tracks from Birds, Jorkes & Nikkname, Skelesys, Silicodisco & Alvaro Cabana, Ducati Flux and NAUFRAGI, presenting a fresh take on sounds influenced by new beat, dark wave, post-punk and new wave. We premiere today “The Scorpion Sting", an immersive dark wave bomb incorporating Skelesys’ enigmatic vocals and guitar. This is another stellar release from the label and we look forward to more.

We also did a interview with Ombra's label boss Curses & Skelesys. Read more and pick up the release: https://thebrvtalist.com/skelesysthescorpionsting/

Günce Acı - Another Round [Ombra INTL020: Dystopian Lucid Dreaming] Mastered at The Wall

Dystopian lucid dreaming… Is this reality? Is this a nightmare? Are we sharing the same dream or are we all part of yours? 

We have no answers. But we do have the perfect soundtrack as Curses’ label Ombra International continue to join the most powerful dots around the world. Somewhere between dark disco and post-punk, it’s the label’s first vinyl release in some time with three debuts and two highlights from the recent Ombra International 17 ‘Destiny’ V/A EP. All things connected, all things unclassifiable, sitting somewhere between Italo, indie, acid house, electro, synthwave and beyond. 

Turkish dynamo Günce Acı takes the lead as she continues to accelerate into the scene with dominance. Her Ombra debut ‘Another Round’ pushes us head first into an acid primordial soup; Trippy, relentless and full of surprises, it’s another sure-fire sign of her exciting rise. 

Elsewhere long-time supporters and good friends of the label Juan MacLean and Hardway Bros also both make their label debuts. The former lays down the deep pulsating sensation ‘Monika’, a sojourn that stretches out over almost 10 minutes of heady, hypnotic bliss. Meanwhile the latter sends us love from his HQ outer space with the industrial strength euphoria bulldozer ‘Early Nineties’. Ploughman beats and cathedral keys, this washes away the bitter aftertaste of lockdown with unfiltered, uncut feels. 

And if that’s not quite enough worldly Ombra substance to fuel your dystopian dreams, then look no further as previous digital-only tracks Skelesys – ‘The Scorpio Sting’ and Jorkes and NIKKNAME – ‘Citizen’ are both revisited on this pivotal release for the label. Timeless music never dates; here’s to another 20 Ombra escapades…

Welcome to a new dream come true. Only we can decide what is salvation or surrender. Goodbye 2020, hello new beginnings.  London's Birds makes her Ombra debut with a dirty post-punk tinged tribute to the late Andrew Weatherall. FREERIDE MILLENIUM cohorts, Jorkes & Nikkname deliver a dystopian manifesto to the citizen's of the renegade and rebel truth. Buenos Aires born, Berlin-based Skelesys returns to the homefront, venturing into an accelerated dark wave bomb incorporating his enigmatic vocals and guitar.  Silicodisco & Madrid's Rotten City Records boss, Alvaro Cabana return to Ombra with a hypnotic kraut-rocktechno vibe. Chilean, Ducati Flux, is 1/2 of the Berlin-based live duo, Random Atlas. With a few tracks already confirmed on Ombra this year, this is his first. A slow and heavy-snared weapon, with a nod to the oldskool turntablist scratch records.  Last in the EP is Belgian's NAUFRAGI. A triumphant return to Ombra, with a super cosmic track, Italo and new wave inspired.

Tracklist:

1. Jorkes & Nikkname - Citizen

3. Birds - Keep The Ship Moving   
4. Skelesys - The Scorpion King
